Differential restore?

[spungee]

Can it be done?
I know this is probably listed somewhere, but I'm out of time, so if anyone can answer this, it would be wildly appreciated (or something along those lines).
When you check the "Discard recover file if already exists", does networker check the timestamp on the existing file as well, so that if the restore file is older it discards it, and if the restore file is newer, it overwrites?

This is on NT4.0, using Networker 6+


I'm currently doing a restore thats gonna take me another 4 hours, so I don't have time to test it either.

Thankyou in advance

It's not possible as far as I know. One can always hope, though. Anyone else have any info?

Sorry but overwrite is overwrite. Legato will see the duplicate name and replace with whats on tape regardless of time stamp.

what about saveset recover? Marking one of the incremential backups and restoring that, will it still ask for tapes from the last full backup, and do a complete restore of all the files on the drive?
